True Grit | Part 4
Manage episode 447324640 series 1300734
In part four of "True Grit," Duane Sheriff teaches the importance of having spiritual endurance, which he calls "grit." He emphasizes that while believers are called to fight "the good fight of faith," they must understand that there are different types of suffering. Persecution and opposition often come because of living righteously, not despite it.
In Mark 10:29-30, Jesus promises a hundredfold return to those who have left everything for the gospel's sake, "with persecutions." Blessings and opposition often go hand in hand in the Christian walk. Not all suffering comes from God; rather, some suffering Jesus took as our substitute, while other forms of suffering are an example for us.
The Apostle Paul writes in Romans 8:16-18 that "the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." While suffering for righteousness is part of the Christian journey, the eternal rewards far outweigh temporary trials. We must maintain our faith and integrity even when facing opposition. Standing for truth in today's culture will inevitably bring resistance, but God's promises remain faithful.
